"The pure-blooded young of the Golden-Winged Great Peng, the final price is … one billion spirit stones!!"
The hands of the old man in sackcloth who was hosting the auction were trembling slightly. The Black Cave Auction had been held for so many years, and the price this time had already surpassed the previous record, reaching a new peak!
And the record was set by his hands.
This would be the most glorious record in his auction career.
Although it was just a bird.
As the dust of the final auction settled, the pure-blooded young of the Golden-Winged Great Peng was sold for one billion spirit stones, which made many cultivators extremely excited.
This was definitely a sky-high price. Of course, as long as anyone thought about the fact that the item being auctioned was a pure-blooded divine beast, they all felt that this price was not too exaggerated.
Instead, they felt that the winner was very lucky!
It was a pity that they did not have the financial resources to own it.
After all, a genuine pure-blooded mythological beast wasn't something that could be bought with money. Many people had a hunch that this auction was absolutely unprecedented. They didn't know how many years it would take for the next auction of a mythological beast's cub to appear.
This moment was definitely qualified to be recorded in the annals of the cultivation world!
As the auction ended, the golden-robed old woman handed the one billion spirit stones storage magic tool to the old man in sackcloth. At the same time, several attendants following behind her respectfully walked to the cage containing Chu Chen and lifted it up.
The cultivations of these attendants were very powerful, at least in the Spirit Stream Realm. In the outside world, they would be considered super powerhouses!
However, in front of Chu Chen, these people were respectful and reverent. Everyone knew that they were not lifting an ordinary bird, but a god!
After walking out of the auction house, everyone, including the golden-robed old woman, was shocked.
They saw that a large number of people had gathered on the road outside the auction house.
These people were disciples of the various large sects of the South Horizon Region, as well as cultivators of the Evil Dao and Demon Dao. There were also some loose cultivators who wore long robes of unknown origins.
In addition to the cultivators, there were even some ordinary people who did not have the slightest bit of spiritual power.
At this moment, seeing the attendants carrying the cage out, everyone's eyes immediately gathered on Chu Chen.
A moment later, a series of low voices rang out.
"The Divine Beast has appeared!"
"The Golden-winged Great Peng shines with divine light, protecting the people and repelling all evil!"
"Supreme Light, Celestial Emperor Jialuo, please bless us with a lifetime of peace!"
…
Following the cries of surprise, those ordinary mortals without any cultivation base began to kneel on the ground one by one. They prostrated themselves in worship towards Chu Chen and cried out in surprise again and again.
Following which, some cultivators also began to kneel on the ground and pray for blessings. For a time, outside the auction venue, people kneeling and praying occupied a large black mass, causing people to be dumbfounded.
Chu Chen was also a little confused, but when he recalled some of the legends of the South Horizon Region, he understood.
In the entire human world, the South Horizon Region had the highest altitude and was also known as the place closest to Heaven.
In this vast land, the Golden-winged Great Peng, Three-legged Golden Crow, and other flying divine beasts were highly revered since ancient times.
In the ancient myths and legends of the South Horizon Region, the Golden-winged Roc was the incarnation and messenger of the heavens.
In the world, only the Golden-winged Great Peng that could fly 90,000 miles in the sky could pass through the endless barriers of heaven and earth and reach the Nine Heavens from the human world.
There was even a legend that when the Ancient Mythological Era fell, the South Horizon Region was the closest to Heaven, so it was affected the most. The entire South Horizon Region was shrouded in layers of demonic clouds and demonic fog, turning into a cold, dark, and deathly silent world.
Later on, it was precisely because of an incomparably powerful Golden-winged Great Peng divine bird that pierced the Nine Heavens and soared into the sky, killing the source of the demonic clouds and demonic fog at the highest point of the sky. It tore apart the endless darkness and brought light back to the land.
Therefore, in this land, the Golden-winged Great Peng was also known as "Supreme Light Celestial Emperor Jialuo".
According to the ancient legends, this Celestial Emperor had two forms. The first form was the Golden-winged Great Peng's original form, and the second form was a Peng head with a human body, extremely domineering.
Until now, many cities and towns in the South Horizon Region still had temples and statues of Celestial Emperor Jialuo. They were often worshiped with a Golden-winged Great Peng, and for thousands of years, incense had been burning endlessly.
At this moment, seeing the statue worshiped in the temple, how could these people not be excited?
Especially those secular mortals who did not have much spiritual power, they even regarded the Golden-winged Great Peng as a true God.
When the send-off team finally walked past the bustling crowd of worshipers, Chu Chen let out a sigh of relief.
He didn't know if it was an illusion, but when those people were worshipping him, there seemed to be an invisible force lingering around him in the void. This force was extremely weak, almost no different from a breeze blowing past him.
It was just that although this power was weak, its attribute was different from any power Chu Chen knew of.
It did not have the majestic majesty of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, nor did it have the gloomy coldness of Demonic Qi.
This force was moderate and gentle, soothing and thick, but it faintly carried a great karma.
Chu Chen had a feeling that if he accepted this force, then he would be tainted with some karma.
This karma might not have any effect on him in the early stages, but the higher his cultivation, the greater the effect of this karma on him!
This … Could this be the legendary power of faith?
Chu Chen's heart skipped a beat.
Legend had it that living beings who had reached the God Realm could sense the power of faith.
This power of faith was actually formed from the thoughts and beliefs in the hearts of millions of mortals.
Once one accepted this power of faith, it was equivalent to accepting the call of millions of mortals.
This power of faith was so strong that it could even ignore the rules.
Legend had it that the ancient Martial Sage Guan Yun was originally just a general in the secular world, he could not even be considered a cultivator.
But because there were so many people who believed in him, under the power of faith of millions of mortals, his body was even sanctified, and he immediately became a God. This was the perfect example of becoming a God through faith.
But although the power of faith was strong, the karma involved was also great.
After accepting the power of faith, one had to appear from time to time to fulfill some of the prayers of the believers.
For example, Yun Zhang had accepted the power of faith of mortals, he had spent his life on the battlefield, going through hundreds of battles big and small, protecting the safety of the people, and finally became a God.
If he accepted the power of faith but slept at home every day without doing anything, then he would not be able to become a God no matter what.
Therefore, the power of faith was a double-edged sword. Although it was strong, it also needed to settle karma.
Chu Chen thought about it, but he did not accept the power of faith for the time being.
